Gabriel Byrne has starred in blockbusters including End of Days and The Usual Suspects, while Sir Michael Gambon has starred in countless TV dramas and films, including the Harry Potter series and Sky Atlantic's Fortitude.

Ben Sweet, of North Light Film Studios, has been instrumental in bringing many productions to the town.

He welcomed the latest film job and said: “It’s not based with us at North Light but it’s the same production company that made the film with Toyah Wilcox which filmed at Kirklees College last year.

“To add another film credit to Huddersfield’s long list is fantastic but to have repeat business in the town shows that we are making a lasting impression on production companies and producers and that’s something that we want to continue to do.

“We must be able to say that we are the most photographed town in the UK.”
